If I were a serious birder, this would be a major milestone... I'm not a serious birder, so this is just really, really cool.
Our mystery bird from yesterday is a Green Heron. I snapped two of these photos, and we were pretty sure that the bird was facing the other way, and its tail was to the right... this is not the case, you can see (view full size... it's a neat bird). Flipping through my li'l bird book, there is nothing else it could possibly be. I knew as soon as I saw it. So neat.
Sez my Golden Field Guides 'Eastern Birds' book, it is a "small, crow-sized heron. A common and widespread summer resident of most wetland habitats, including wooded streams and ponds. Typically solitary."
